DuPont™ Tyvek® coveralls are composed of flash spun high density polyethylene which creates a nonwoven material. DuPont™ Tyvek® 400 fabric is noted for their superior particulate barrier and ability to resist the passage of micro organisms (down to 1.0 micron in size). The lightweight, nonwoven DuPont™ Tyvek® fabric is used to construct garments that provide protection for your people and cleanroom processes. The Dupont™ cleanroom line of Tyvek® garments offer features such as tapered torso to reduce billowing, extended sleeve and leg length to minimize skin exposure, rotated shoulders and curved backs for improved comfort and movement.

Store coveralls in a cool, dark, dry location free of dirt and insects. Sunlight, ozone, high temperatures (>120°F, 49°C), vehicle exhaust fumes, compression under heavy weights and sharp edges or projections are some conditions known to degrade the material.

DuPont™ does not recommend washing Tyvek® 400 for re-use. These garments are designed for limited use. They can be worn until damaged, altered or contaminated.

Tyvek® garments should be used within 5 years of receipt, provided they are properly stored and pass a full visual inspection. High temperature, oxidizing gases, wet, cold, ultraviolet and ionizing radiation can significantly impact the long term life of garments made of Tyvek®. The antistatic properties may reduce over time. The user must ensure the dissipative performance is sufficient for the application.

DUPONT™ TYVEK® COVERALL ESD PROPERTIESThe fabric used to make Tyvek® 400 garments is treated with a topical antistatic agent to help minimize static build up and reduce nuisance garment cling. In situations hwere static dissipative level is a critical performance property, end-users should evaluate the performance of their entire ensemble worn including outer garments, inner garments, footwear and other PPE. In order for any garment system to be static dissipative, it must be able to drain a charge buildup through proper grounding devices, such as, but not limited to, workstation grounding clips or static dissipative floors.

Under certain conditions, such as cold and dry weather, it is possible that garments might build and discharge static electricity. Discharges are not normally dangerous except in situations where the generation of an electrical spark could ignite a flammable atmosphere or startle the wearer. When operating around flammable chemicals, take steps to eliminate potential static discharges. In these situations, suggested steps include, but not limited to, water spray, the use of an overcover, raising humidity level of the work area, use of a commercial, anti-static application coating, grounding straps on equipment and personnel, inherently static-dissipating under- and over-garments, and testing of the worker's static dissipation before entry into the classified area.

However, in the case of explosive or flammable atmospheres, even if steps are taken to manage static formation and dissipate static charge, the risk of severe injury remains if an uncontrolled or accidental ignition occurs. Do not wear Tyvek® 400 chemical protective garments in potentially flammable or explosive atmospheres. Do not knowingly enter an environment in which the concentration of flammable gas is within flammable or explosive limits while wearing a Tyvek® 400 garment. If you determine that you are in a potentially flammable or explosive environment, retreat immediately.

INDUSTRIAL DUPONT™ TYVEK® 400 GARMENTS NOT DESIGNED FOR A CLEANROOM APPLICATIONTyvek® 400 garments have not been designed for controlled environment applications. DuPont offers a full line of garments that have been specifically manufactured, processed and packaged for use in controlled environment applications. Tyvek® has a rough side and a smooth side. For the cleanroom applications the smooth side is sewn as the outside of the garment while the industrial garments have the rough side on the outside. Tyvek® IsoClean® is used in the construction of garments for controlled environments. Use product code DU-IC to search for DuPont products for cleanroom and sterile applications.

INDUSTRIAL DUPONT™ TYVEK® 400 GARMENTS ARE NOT FLAME RESISTANTTyvek® 400 garments are not flame resistant or flame retardand and should not be used around heat, flame, sparks or potentially flammable or explosive environments. Tyvek® 400 garments will ignite and continue to burn and melt.
